Overview

• First pitches for Reds–Brewers and Mets–Marlins are scheduled simultaneously at 3:10 p.m. ET.
• Milwaukee has already secured the National League’s No. 1 seed and will start Freddy Peralta, with reports noting his outing could be shortened ahead of the NLDS.
• Cincinnati counters with Brady Singer in the must-win finale after a strong recent run followed by a rough start against Pittsburgh.
• The Reds hold the season-series tiebreaker over the Mets, so any Mets loss sends Cincinnati to the postseason.
• Brewers moves before the game included reinstating DL Hall and Trevor Megill, designating Erick Fedde for assignment, and keeping Christian Yelich in the leadoff spot at DH, while the Reds opened with Sal Stewart on the bench.
